Price historyRegistered sale prices for this project, in AED per sq ft, with the number of sales in each figure.
AED · sqft
Fewer than 5 home sales after the launch window in the last 12 months, so no comparison is shown.
Dubai Statistics Center residential price index (flats), 2023-Q4 to 2026-Q2: +15.7%.
Prices are over apartments, the type most sales in this project are.
| Bedrooms | Sales, 24 months | Latest median AED/sqft | Latest sales |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 BR | 6 | — | — |
Launch price: median AED/sqft of the project's off-plan home sales in the 90 days from its first one, for a first sale on or after 1 March 2020; Skyline Index uses the same rule. Latest: home sales of the last 12 months after the launch window, ready and off-plan; the change compares the same home types. The bedroom table compares the launch window with the last 6 months (12 when 6 have fewer than 5 sales). Off-plan registrations include developer sales and resales; DLD open data does not tell them apart. Sales more than 4 times off the median are left out.
